I put on the #StarTrek #TheOriginalSeries episode #SpocksBrain at dinner. #BeardGrabber and I watched about half of it before he went out to play at a friend's.
Now, as he's eating his evening meal, he wanted to watch the rest of it.
I'll call that a win

#Redshirting is all the rage these days? Um, I don't think that's a good idea...

What was Sarek's 2nd Human wife's name? #StarTrek #AllStarTrek #sttos #tng
I like the facts that the buildings basically only had fronts. There was probably no need for that since the studios had all sorts of western town sets laying around back then, so it was probably a purposeful artistic choice.
"Brain and brain what is brain?!?!?!"
My favorite bad Trek line ever written which comes later in the episode.
I love this episode and I wish this series got made, because if it had it would probably have been shown alongside Trek episodes on H&I's Trek nights!
Sarah and Allie slip on some armbands and kick march around the studio… No, I’m not doing this. I refuse to put swastikas on our cartoons and there’s no good jokes to write here about this literal Nazi episode of Star Trek: The Original Series. Listen to this episode, punch a Nazi, and learn from history.

Sarah and Allie board the Magic School Bus and shrink down to microscopic size. As the bus penetrates a giant space amoeba’s boundary… actually, maybe this is all too dirty to make jokes about a kid’s TV show.
Join us as we blast some antimatter inside a nucleus. Seriously, did these writers know what they were doing?

When Allie and Sarah find themselves on a planet based on a book about 1920’s #Chicago #mobsters the episode encounters way more tangents and accents than usual. What might happen to a culture if a people came along and just dropped off a book? Ask Africa. And Haiti. And…

Has anyone ever noticed how weird it is that no one on #Starfleet carries anything in their pockets in #STTOS (excluding the movies), #TNG, #DS9, or #STVoyager? On missions they get a phaser and a tricorder and that's it? WTF is up with that?
How many episodes would have easily been solved if they were just slightly prepared? I get it's not military so they don’t have side arms but what about a flashlight? A multitool? Maybe a first aid kit when they head down to the planet?
Why isn't anyone on the bridge armed? What about engineering? The two points where someone could literally get in and either destroy or take over the ship -- and nobody is ever armed.
It's like the only standard equipment they get is the combadge and uniform. Like working at McDonalds, here's your name tag and a weird polo shirt and you're good to go. Go save the universe.
